I dunno. I still think the types of graphical tools we have today are better than a chatbot for an interface. I often struggle with explaining what I want in a way that such a tool would actually return anything useful. I might try it once or twice, but I’d probably go back to a standard graphical interface pretty quick. I’m not a “terminal junkie” or particularly technical, but I absolutely hate the idea of a computer you have to talk to like it’s a person, I suck at dealing with people.
Sure, different people like different things. My original point was that just being able to use natural language would be a benefit for non technical users. Most people struggle with complex UIs or achieving tasks where they have to engage multiple apps. Being able to just explain what you want the way you would to another person would lower the barrier significantly. For technical users, we already have tools that we can leverage, but if MCP services started becoming a common way to build apps, then we’d get benefits from that as well.
